How the Weeks Work is Mapped Out
for Congress.
WASHINGTON, February 13th.-In the
Senate the following will be the routine
morning business tomorrow Senator
Cameron will ask that his bill 10 increase
the naval establishment be taken up. If it
be passed without an extended debate, SEN
ator Hale will probably call up his bill
bearing substantially the same title during
the morning hours on Tuesday or Wednes-
day. These two measures are parts of one
general plan for the increase of the navy

cruisers and Hale's bill for coast defense
vessels.
